Simon Morris looks at three films that owe their audiences to attractive casts – Kate Winslet in the Oscar hopeful Lee…. a star-studded comedy drama, The Critic featuring Sir Ian McKellen and Gemma Arterton…. And a Netflix true-crime thriller, starring and directed by Anna Kendrick.
The Critic features Sir Ian McKellen as a much-feared theatre critic who'll do anything to keep his job, no matter who gets hurt. Also starring Gemma Arterton (Byzantium), Mark Strong (Kingsman) and Lesley Manville (Mrs Harris Goes To Paris).
British actress and producer Gemma Arterton has led a long-running and diverse acting career, with many roles to her name. She made her film debut in the 2007 comedy St Trinian's and made her mark in the 2008 blockbuster Quantum of Solace as a Bond Girl. Since then, she's gone on to star in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Clash of the Titans, The King's Man, and Rogue Agent - and she stars in the TV series Funny Woman. Her newest role sees her playing a budding actress being blackmailed by a powerful critic in the 1930's-set thriller The Critic. She says she was drawn to the role when she first got word of it - and working with Sir Ian McKellen was a 'privilege'. "It was one of the biggest privileges of my whole life, really, working with him - so it was a no-brainer, really." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bush & Richie were joined by the legendary Sir Ian McKellen.Gandalf himself spoke to the Hometime boys about his new film the Critic, which is all about a powerful theatre reviewer. They also couldn't help but ask Ian for his thoughts on the recent news of Oasis's reunion…
This week's guest is the one and only Sir Ian McKellen, who is on the show to very eloquently tell Simon all about his starring role in ‘The Critic', a period thriller in which a powerful – and pompous – London theatre critic lures a struggling actress into a blackmail scheme that has deadly consequences. Mark also weighs in on the film, as well as reviewing ‘Lee', a Kate Winslet-starring biopic of photographer Elizabeth ‘Lee' Miller, a fashion model who became an acclaimed war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II; ‘Speak No Evil', a psychological thriller with James McAvoy, which sees an American family's dream holiday turn into a living nightmare when they spend a weekend at a British family's idyllic country estate; and ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice', the long-awaited sequel to Tim Burton's beloved 1988 comedy horror classic, which sees the mischievous poltergeist Beetlejuice return for more supernatural chaos, as a new family stumbles upon his bizarre afterlife realm.

Sir Ian McKellen didn't mince words in a recent interview, where he called Elizabeth "bloody rude" and shared some sharp takes on other members of the Royal Family. Despite having met the Queen multiple times and receiving honors from her, including a Companion of Honour in 2007, McKellen recalled a particularly awkward moment. He saidThe Queen, I'm sure she was quite mad at the end. And on the few occasions I met her she was quite rude. When I received a medal for acting [the Companion of Honour in 2008], she said, ‘You've been doing this for an awfully long time.' I said, ‘Well, not as long as you.' I got a royal smile for that, but then she said, ‘Does anyone still actually go to the theatre?' That's bloody rude when you're giving someone a medal for acting. It meant, ‘Does anyone care a (eff) about you because I don't. Now off you go!'Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

WHO KNOWS WHAT EVIL LURKS IN THE HEARTS OF MEN?Thirty years ago this past summer, director Russell Mulcahy (Highlander, Ricochet) presented the answer to that question with a heavily hyped, lavish adaption of the popular radio show and comic strip of the same name from the '30's and 40's.....and audiences didn't seem to care, neither did critics for that matter. However over time, this art-deco fantasy action thriller has garnered a bit of a cult following thanks to it very strong cast, catchy score (from the late, great Jerry Goldsmith) and some undeniably fun images and set pieces. Alec Baldwin stars as Lamont Cranston, millionaire playboy who also moonlights as....The Shadow, fighting crime and getting to the bottom of evil conspiracies throughout his home city of New York. John Lone co-stars as the main villain Shiwan Khan (a distant descendent of Genghis Khan), Penelope Ann Miller also co-stars as mysterious psychic Margo Lane, along with Sir Ian McKellen as her father Dr. Reinhardt Lane. The stacked cast also includes Tim Curry, Jonathan Winters, and Peter Boyle.

Joe Stephenson is a British director who made his feature directorial debut with the 2015 film Chicken. His second film was the acclaimed 2018 documentary McKellen: Playing the Part about the life and career of Sir Ian McKellen. Joe's third film is, Doctor Jekyll, an adaptation of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde starring Eddie Izzard from Hammer Films.In this episode, Joe and I delve into the process of reimagining a classic horror story with a modern twist, working with the legendary Eddie Izzard, as well as the past, present and future of Hammer Films. We also get into the many challenges of shooting on a tight budget, how to select locations when shooting in one location, and the hurdles Joe overcame, including epic storms and COVID-19.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Joe Stephenson.Improvisation Can be MagicalJoe's approach to directing Doctor Jekyll focused on creating an environment where actors could infuse their own creativity into their performances, especially with the movie's star, Eddie Izzard, whose improvisational skills added a unique energy to the character and film. Joe enabled improvisation by first having the actors perform the scenes exactly as they were written in the script, ensuring that they had a solid, reliable version in the can. Only after that was done did he encourage the actors to experiment with their lines and actions, exploring different ways of delivering the scene. This approach gave the film the best of both worlds: a faithful representation of the script and the discovery of new, spontaneous moments. This is a great approach, especially when working with megawatt talents like Eddie Izzard, who can bring more to the scene than is in the script.Find Unique LocationsJoe wanted a location that hadn't been overexposed in other films, and Stanford House near Rugby, UK, provided the perfect setting with its distinctive and untouched appearance, adding to the film's uniquely creepy atmosphere. Shooting in a single location like Stanford House offered multiple benefits. The house's grand, eerie presence played a significant role in setting the film's tone and allowed for visual consistency. Joe also housed the actors on-site, which helped them immerse themselves even more deeply in their roles and the movie's tone.Directing is Problem SolvingThe production of Doctor Jekyll faced numerous unforeseen challenges, from weather issues to the impact of COVID-19. Dealing with the unpredictable English weather forced the crew to constantly adjust their shooting schedule, including canceling a crane shoot due to a severe storm. COVID-19 added another layer of complexity. When the film's gaffer tested positive, a replacement had to be brought in who hadn't worked with the DOP before, disrupting the established workflow and adding stress to an already tight schedule. These challenges, coupled with budget constraints, meant the production was under constant pressure. However, Joe's ability to stay calm and adaptive helped keep the film on track. As my guests have illustrated time and time again, most of filmmaking comes down to being adaptable and resilient, as things will inevitably go wrong, especially on low-budget movies.SHOW NOTESMovies:Doctor JekyllChickenGreat ExpectationsMidas ManBooks/Novellas:Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis StevensonFollow Joe Stephenson at:Instagram: www.instagram.com/joestephenson/X (Twitter):

We're wrapping up 1993 Movies with a movie that we've never seen or heard of; Six Degrees of Separation starring Will Smith, Sir Ian Mckellen, Donald Sutherland and Stockard Channing. It was quite the based a true events, taken from a screen play film that inspired some fun conversation. We predict what next month's movies (Cabin Boy and Intersection) are all about and of course we go off on tangents and talk about the celebrities that we are only a few degrees away from.
In the Texas state legislature, Christian Democratic Representative James Talarico gave a biblically-based rebuke against a Republican Christian nationalist bill to post the Ten Commandments in all public school classrooms — and it went viral. The repeal of the U.K.'s notorious “no promo homo” Section 28 and the opening of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King made mid-December 2003 a joyous season for world-renowned actor Sir Ian McKellen. He greeted the news at an LGBTQ gathering at Premiere House in Wellington, New Zealand (recorded by Hugh Young of Access Radio's GayBC). And in NewsWrap: Uganda's infamous Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023 faces a quadruple challenge in the nation's Constitutional Court, Scotland's Gender Recognition Reform Bill loses the first round of its fight for approval from the British government, Jordanian queer activists forced to flee from government persecution, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers vetoes a Republican bill to ban pediatric gender-affirming healthcare, Florida defends school board book bans as the government's right to control libraries, Bucks County, Pennsylvania voters celebrate rescuing their school board from right-wing extremists, and more international LGBTQ news reported this week by Michael Taylor-Gray and Kalyn Hardman (produced by Brian DeShazor).

We look at the re-imagined X-men! After the terrible X-men: The Last Stand, can this movie fix some of the problems? Who are all these characters? And how much is comic accurate? Find out on this edition of Super Sideshow Podcast! Follow. Subscribe. Rate. Review. Thumbs up. Give us all the Stars! Show notes. The movie is based on the comic, which is probably one of the most important comics for X-men or Marvel. In the comic, Kitty does send her mind into the past and Mystique is connected to an assassination attempt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_of_Future_Past This was easily the best movie, and most successful, movie of the X-men franchise. And it fixes all the problems from X-men: The Last Stand. https://movieweb.com/x-men-days-of-future-past-best-why/ Bishop is a time-traveller in the comics, coming from a future much like the one in the movie. But, we don't know much about his situation in the movie. Still, it's cool he was in the movie. https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Lucas_Bishop_(Earth-1191) Yes, Quicksilver is Magneto's son. But, things are always complicated in the comics. https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/scarlet-witch-and-magneto-history-in-the-comics The ending with Mystique doesn't make a bunch of sense, especially if you watch the next movies. https://screenrant.com/x-men-days-future-past-stryker-twist-explained/ There is a “Rogue cut” that has lots of interesting changes to the original. https://screenrant.com/xmen-days-future-past-rogue-cut-every-change/ The end credit scene is so cool! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EywrnmHS73o Apparently, Bryan Singer was not easy to work with. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/halle-berry-bryan-singer-x-men-days-of-future-past-set-fights-clash-b421349.html Some cool trivia from IMDB about this movie… “Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen had make-up applied to look twenty years older than their actual ages.” “For her role as Mystique, Jennifer Lawrence had worn full-body prosthetics in X-Men: First Class (2011), consisting of appliances that were glued onto her body. However, not only were these uncomfortable, she also became unwell from inhaling particles coming from these appliances, and the make-up department couldn't guarantee that these weren't bad for her health. For this sequel, Lawrence would only return if they found a way around this, so a special bodysuit was created for her that was safer and much easier to put on.” “When Matthew Vaughn was going to direct, he was going to make this movie a direct sequel to X-Men: First Class (2011), and have it set in the 1970s. Early ideas included an opening with the Kennedy assassination being caused by Magneto, and mutant encounters set during the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War. When Singer took over, he integrated these concepts into a viral marketing campaign to set up the action of the movie.” News you can abuse!

Today marks the 25th anniversary of Apt Pupil, the 1998 Stephen King adaptation that stars the late Brad Renfro and Sir Ian McKellen. Admittedly, it's a very controversial film to discuss, but to their credit, our friends Joe Lipsett and Trace Thurman of the Horror Queers braved the unnerving themes and backstories within the production. They also invited our co-host Jenn Adams along to help 'em out. So, we thought: Why not shed a light on the film -- consider it a Long Watch -- and give our network pals the spotlight, too. Win-win. If you dig this episode, do not hesitate to subscribe to the Horror Queers wherever you get podcasts. They're brilliant.

Beloved icon of stage and screen, my guest today is the singular Sir Patrick Stewart. The knighted Shakespeare thespian, captain of the Starship Enterprise, international treasure, and master storyteller is here and brings conversational delights lifted from 83 years of life. Today Patrick shares tales from his humble beginnings, how theatre saved him, and how childhood trauma informed his career and led to his passion for mental health advocacy. We also discuss legacy, longevity, honing your craft, the importance of mentorship, and his unique friendship with Sir Ian McKellen. We of course dive into some epic Star Trek stories and explore why the series is so indelible—which naturally led to thoughts on UFOs and the ghost that he is absolutely convinced took up residence in his Silverlake home. The occasion for today's exchange is Patrick's brand new memoir, Making It So—an excellent read that traces the improbable story of his life from his humble beginnings in Yorkshire, England, to the heights of Hollywood and worldwide acclaim. They say never meet your heroes. I disagree. As a long-time Trekkie, this was a pinch-me moment. It was an absolute pleasure and honor to talk with a man I respect and admire tremendously. Enjoy!
